Thanks To You

I remember those dull dark moments
When the dawn became early dusk
The sky began to fall down around me
The rain turned into dust

Seven different masks I had
One on every day of the week
My heart throbbing like a runaway train
Let me loose it would often speak

Unappreciative to people I rudely was
It all came back and paid its cost
Down and out I would cry at night
At the guardian angels I thought I'd lost

Everything I ever owned and had
Was everything I thought I needed
I thought that I had the greatest plan for my perfect life
But obviously that never succeeded

Ignorant to my imperfections
They never did do me any good
Filling spaces with things that only made more holes
Nothing seem to satisfy me, nothing could

But I remember when you came to me
An angel sent from heaven in disguise
Mystery shrouded your whole entire body
Especially those dark brown eyes

You graced my life with rhyme and reason
You filled me with curiosity
I knew I just had to have you as my own
But why would she love someone like me?

I'm not one to make any of the moves
I knew that deep down inside
I wanted so much to make communication
But fear caused it to hide

I remember so many things in my life
Even things I wish I could forget
We all have some skeletons in our closets
Things we all live to regret

But meeting you was never a mistake
I believe it was truly meant to be
God placed you here on this earth for a reason
Its was out fate our true destiny

You changed my life completely
Turned it around for the greater good
"You would've done it for me" you said
Back then not sure but now I know I would

I now look back at those moments
When the dawn gave way to dusk
When the sky fell to its knees
And the rain turned to dust

When the masks I hid behind now faded away
Left behind a lonely child
Whose heart you found alone wondering
Now tamed not running wild

I often stop and give thanks to god
For keeping one of his angels around
To nurture me and care for me,
When I was lost waiting to be found

Everything that makes you what you are
Is everything I could ever want and need
Nothing compares to or even comes close to you
You're everything to me

You striped away all my imperfections
And molded them into good
You filled in the missing spaces left behind
One's that others never could

Words only describe its meaning
Numbers can only count for so long
Nothing really describes what we've made,
Who did it, or where it's from

It's written every night in the stars
Its worth more than this earths' weight in gold
Distance cannot break it apart
Nor times decay make it old

Science can not experiment its chemistry
Nor archeology uncover its birth
Music can not touch the hearts ear
No instrument can measure its girth

All I know is who I am when I am with you
And all these emotions that I have come to know and feel
I get confused sometimes because it all feels like a dream
But at the same time I know it's real

It's what I feel every passing day
When I'm with or without you
Some believe its just infatuation
But I know its love now, thanks to you x
